Plus: Bias -- By Whom?, No Alternative, South Park Fallout

Classic ball: While reading John W. Royal's riff on Elston ["Fair Play," Night & Day, June 27], I was reminded of the years when my dad and I watched the Colt .45s play. I enjoyed baseball at Colt Stadium: the evening games when the Gulf breeze would move in, the smell of the peanuts, the satisfying thump of a fastball in the catcher's mitt, the immediacy of the field. All that was lost with the advent of indoor baseball.

I look forward to reading more articles on Houston baseball from Mr. Royal.
